I appreciate your advice, but I'm just here to ask the developers if they had any intention of adding color channels to Designer. Thanks.

Vector is my preferred method. It's non-destructive and scalable. both are important for my purposes.

So I got Affinity Designer with the intention of transitioning away from PS for my work. I do art for videogames and a major aspect of that is specialized texture maps that use individual color channel information for game rendered lighting effects and masks. This often means I directly manipulating the color channels to either pack three grayscale maps into one file, or to edit a normal map (which uses RGB for vertical, horizontal, and forward lighting information). I noticed pretty quickly that color channel options don't exist in Designer, and I was wondering if that was a feature you were planning to add? Without that ability I find myself unable to complete most tasks.
